Do you have a secret loop or route?
Do you have a secret loop or route that you ride? I have a little 20 minute loop by my house that runs through residential and semi residential neighbourhoods. It has some pretty good corners in it and it's a nice release when you dont have time to go for a full on burn.
I've been riding it for 16 years now. I've never seen a cop on it ...
It's my secret.,
DO you have a route like that too?

8 MPG with a Jardine cat-back? Astounding. Even your Interceptor must have had that beat.
Secret Loop? Well it was something of a secret, but then the twat authors of the Destinations book wrote it up. Seems like every squid in the lower mainland blitzed the route last summer, attracting plenty of popo.
Why can't us locals all just agree to stick with one story (shared reluctantly of course) for the squids: confirm how great the S2S hwy is and that there's nothing else worthwhile in the lower mainland (or province).

shoot! the s2s is my secret! I'm busted 
8mpg .... I drive it like I stole it..  ... I;m sure I could nurse 13 mpg out of it, but how would that be fun or satisfying?
You think it's fun fishing fer squids on BCSB,,,, you should try tree huggers in Hybrid forums.. like ducks in a barrel my friend,

Everytime I ride, I ride the same roads...... I know them by heart. Which makes it fun, even though I always want more though.

I have one that runs through a housing development that was built in the late '60's, I found it when I got my license in 1969.
The only time it's near feasible to run it hard is right at dawn, nobody's awake but there's enough light to see.
